millú

A devoted selector, curator and advocate for underground and underrepresented music, Millu has been a mainstay of the local dance community for the past decade. Festival repeat offender, international circuit breaker and club scene rotator, her ear is tightly tuned to astral fringes of the electronic underground. On the dance floor this translates to deeply considered, immersive journeys, whilst never underestimating the importance of a good groove and a big bassline.

Her sound is eccentric, led by a distinct ability to saunter between genres and tempos, challenging perceptions of when and where certain records should be played. Her commitment to her craft has seen her take peak time slots at Inner Varnika, Strawberry Fields, Golden Plains and Boiler Room Melbourne over the years.

Outside of the DJ booth, Millu’s sound is honed week after week on her slot on Melbourne’s RRR, delving into celestial ambient, brain-dance IDM, and deep, progressive grooves and weaving clear narratives grounded in community and storytelling. Alongside Pjenne (Penny O’Brien) she also co-heads Companion, a label dedicated to atmospheric sounds for long form listening. With six releases to date platforming emerging artists from all over the globe, her dedication to sharing underground and underrepresented music with the world is evident. This passion for the scene and its ever-evolving shape and sound has rendered her a beloved member of the dance music community, especially in the more left-leaning and queer corners in which she has found a familiar home.

Her expansive style can be heard in mixes curated for renowned series all over the world, including Byron Yeates’ Radiant Records, Gestalt, c-, Honeypot, Patterns of Perception and Four Heads.
